Lesson 2 of 10
The words you'll hear on every project
This video explains the handful of words you will hear on every project, so project emails and meetings make sense from day one.
What you'll do
- Learn who the appointing party is: the client, or the owner in the US.
- Learn who the lead appointed party is: the firm appointed to deliver, often the main (general) contractor or lead designer.
- Meet the task teams, the groups doing the work.
- Recognise the BEP, MIDP, information requirements and the CDE.
Why it matters
These words come from ISO 19650, the international standard Plannerly is built around, so they mean the same on projects all over the world. Agreeing them is where good teamwork starts.
